Smooth Body Wrap

Humans maintain their bodies for the same reasons they maintain their houses: to keep the neighbors friendly and to disguise the fact that an alien lives inside them. Keep your inner tenant cleverly concealed with today’s Groupon: for $85, you get two Sudatonic far-infrared body wraps at Smooth Body Wrap, located in Sola Salon Studios in Southlake (a $250 value).

The certified aestheticians at Smooth Body Wrap shroud bodies in the beauty-bolstering heat of Sudatonic far-infrared technology. While clients relax on a cushioned treatment table, a slimming expert envelops them in warm infrared blankets and French creams that target cellulite, attempting to convert it into the kind of energy that hungry muscles will gobble up. The 20- to 40-minute treatments are designed to flush toxins from the body, soothe aching joints, speed up sluggish metabolism, fight stress, and enhance the appearance of the body’s wrapping paper. Prior to the treatment, patrons should swallow down plenty of water, avoid slathering the skin in lotions, and eat a healthy meal. For maximum results, patients should engage in regular cardiovascular workouts such as jogging or climbing the StairMaster with the escalator function turned off.

Smooth Body Wrap

Smooth Body Wrap specializes in nonsurgical slimming procedures and facial enhancements. Body-wrap therapist Camellia Ordia cocoons limbs in two types of infrared wraps, as well as a more traditional version that relies on botanical-rich Elemis products to catalyze detoxification and body contouring. A program of hormone therapy also aims to help weight-loss efforts, which the staff supports with a list of healthy recipes. Beauty injections and Latisse treatments for eyelash growth give guests the firm, bright-eyed look of a young Bambi.
